D is the correct answer.

The New Deal was an interconnected system of programs proposed and enacted by President Roosevelt and his administration in the 1930s to mitigate the terrible effects of the Great Depression. These programs included programs that got people back to work and programs to bring electricity to rural areas. The end goal was to get America's economy moving again through robust stimulus.
